This is a fairly short how-to as I will assume that you know how to install lighttpd and get it running with a single mod_secdownload entry.
In order to run multiple entries, you will need to
1. Create a new, separate secdownload.conf file for the new site (can name it secdownload1.conf) and put it in the conf.d folder with the proper permissions. The contents of the new secdownload file should be as follows (if your site is sub.mysite.com):
Code:
$HTTP["host"] =~ "sub\.mysite\.com:81$"{ server.document-root = "/home/mysite/public_html" secdownload.timeout = 3600 secdownload.secret = "secret" secdownload.uri-prefix = "/videos/" secdownload.document-root = "/home/mysite/public_html/videos" }
Of course replace the secret, doc root and prefix with your details.
2. In the modules.conf file add the path to the new secdownload1.conf file we just created like so:
Code:
## ## mod_secdownload ## include "conf.d/secdownload.conf" include "conf.d/secdownload1.conf"
3. In the lighttpd.conf file, ensure to have the following:
Code:
## Load the modules. include "modules.conf"
You can replicate this as many times as you need for streaming.
Alternatively, you can simply add the following to your lighttpd.conf where you have the first HOST setup:
$HTTP["host"] =~ "newdomain\.com" {
server.document-root = "/home/newdomainusername/public_html/"
}
Then save and restart.
Change the newdomain to your actual domain and the document-root to where ever the files are.
I have a two small shared hosting packages and the price I pay I don't expect to receive very good support. I accept with any shared hosting uptime cannot be guaranteed neither can it be 100% and anyone who suggests otherwise is living a dream. However on the occasions I have opened a ticket they have been answered and investigated promptly. I have been with ayksolutions.com since Jun/18/2008 oh wow where has the time gone!
AYK provide a very good value product, and always in a professional manner. I have used several hosting companies over the past 17 years. During that time I occasionally needed help with a variety of minor setup issues. Only AYK gave quick and helpful answers. I highly recommend them.
I had never heard of AYK Solutions before, but they had an awesome deal I couldn't pass up on WHT. So far the service has been exceptional, and the server is rock solid. I'll be moving my other servers here soon!
